The aim of this lecture is to provide a platform for academics, development practitioners, policy makers, NGOs and stakeholders to share their work and ideas on development issues that are relevant at the national, regional and global levels. 
The focus of today's lecture is:
Pillar 1; Poverty: to understand the multidimensional aspects of poverty eradication in order to expand poverty analysis to include the broader development challenges and to derive appropriate policy measures at different stages of development. 
Pillar 5; Gender, Development and Group Vulnerability: to understand Group Vulnerability such as defined by gender, ethnicity, children, youth and aging population for the purpose of mainstreaming policy making.
 
This seminar is also an initiative under the Centre's Core Programmes to provide a platform to discuss and reevaluate Malaysia's current poverty line.
